Doctor Wang and He Zhiqi were still in the dining room, Su Yuancheng was talking to them, and when Wei Zhao passed, Doctor Wang hurriedly asked, "How is it, is that Miss Luo okay?" ”

Wei Zhao nodded and said, "She's fine, but she suddenly heard that there are relatives alive, and she was emotional, and now she is asleep." ”

Doctor Wang relieved his heart at this time, and then said: "Then did she say why Captain Luo didn't return to Beijing for so many years?" General Luo has really endured all these years in order to find him. ”

Wei Zhao's expression was serious, and he frowned: "The problem is here, he hasn't thought about going home for so many years, and he hasn't even said his identity when he is dying, so it can be seen that there is something hidden in it." ”

He paused and said, "I don't know if you remember, nineteen years ago, did anything big happen in the capital?"

Doctor Wang's face changed suddenly, his expression was sad, his eyes seemed to be struggling, and he sighed for a long time.

"Nineteen years ago, I was still in Beijing, serving as the envoy of the Tai Hospital, if you want to say what happened back then, the biggest thing is that the first emperor died of illness and the throne changed."

His tone was leisurely, and He Zhiqi behind him poured him a cup of tea and moistened his mouth, and then began to tell about the past that he still doesn't want to mention, and even plans to never mention it again for the rest of his life.

"When I first entered the hospital, I was just an ordinary imperial doctor, one day, the emperor was infected with a cold, and the imperial doctor who was in charge of the emperor's pulse case happened to be sick and took leave at home.

I was on duty that day, so I went to check the pulse, and I was very lucky that a dose of medicine cured the emperor's cold.

From then on, he trusted me very much, and appointed me to be in charge of his daily pulse, and later promoted me to be the new envoy after the resignation of the old envoy of the Tai Hospital.

That's more than 10 years.

Nineteen years ago, the emperor was already in his fifties, and his health was deteriorating.

Seeing that the emperor's health was not as good as one day by day, the hundred officials persuaded the emperor to appoint a prince as soon as possible and act as an agent for state affairs.

The emperor himself had this plan, but he hesitated in the choice of the kings.

At that time, there were two adult princes, the eldest prince born by the queen was loyal and cared for the people, and the second prince born by the noble concubine was scheming and good at strategy.

The first emperor once said that the eldest prince is more than loyal and inflexible, but he is good at listening to admonitions and is a king who keeps to success, and the second prince is just the opposite, he is good at scheming and ambitious, but he is too ruthless.

At that time, the mother family of the queen and the concubine were both powerful families and were very influential in the court, so half of the people who supported the two princes were each.

The court has to quarrel every day for the establishment of the reserve, and the two parties have their own arguments and do not give in to each other.

However, before they could fight for results, the emperor suddenly fell seriously ill.

He shut himself up in his dormitory, and saw no one except his personal eunuch.

As the envoy of the Tai Hospital at that time, I naturally wanted to go for treatment, and the emperor promised to let me go in for treatment, but the condition was that I wanted to go in, and I could not come out again, unless he was cured or died.

I had no choice but to repay him for his kindness, and entered the dormitory with the heart of accompanying him to death.

Strangely, I didn't diagnose any illness in the emperor's body, and everything was normal, but he just couldn't eat, he lost weight day by day, and his hair fell out quickly.

He said that if someone tried to harm him, he would die.

But I couldn't do anything about it.

On the fifth day of my entry into the dormitory, the Emperor gave me a decree, and he told me that when he died, he would let me go and let me read the edict for him.

The next day, the first emperor died, and the great eunuch Mo Gonggong, who had served him all his life, killed himself and went with him.

I opened the door of the dormitory, and there were people standing outside, and I announced the death of the emperor to them, and read out the edict.

In the edict, the first emperor passed on the throne to the eldest prince, that is, the king of Heng at that time.

The second prince Huaiwang and his party were naturally unwilling to admit defeat like this, they first questioned the authenticity of the edict, suspected me of falsely passing on the edict, and then questioned the sudden death of the emperor because I colluded with the party of the eldest prince and murdered the emperor.

The eldest prince and his party naturally want to protect me, otherwise I will be attacked by the second prince and his party to 'exterminate my mouth'.

After that, the auxiliary general, who had always been neutral, stood up and expressed his allegiance to the eldest prince, and the second prince and the party temporarily died down and acquiesced in the edict.

Half a month after the first emperor was buried, the eldest prince Heng Wang ascended the throne and was crowned Princess Heng. ”

Speaking of this, Wei Zhao thought that the story should have been told, but Doctor Wang shook his head and said, "The matter is far from over. ”

Three months after the new emperor ascended the throne, the second prince Huaiwang suddenly made a difficulty, saying that the eldest prince killed his father, and rushed into the palace to force the palace under the banner of setting things right, and the new emperor died in the chaos, and the queen also killed herself in the harem.

Then King Huai ascended the throne and changed the name of the year to "Jinghe".

After that, the court was purged by him with iron-blooded means, and the eldest prince was killed by his party, degraded, and changed his banner.

Wei Zhao suddenly asked: "Since the second prince is forcing the palace under the slogan of putting things in order, how can he let you go who directly participated in the transmission of the decree?" ”

Doctor Wang sighed, and then said: "Because I once saved the son of the general of the auxiliary state, that is, Captain Luo, the general has always regarded me as a benefactor, at that time the new emperor was dead, the dynasty was controlled by the two princes, the party was the same and different, the general was disheartened, and took the initiative to hand over the military power in exchange for my life." The emperor agreed, but asked me to leave the capital and never enter the capital again. ”

exchanging military power for the life of a imperial doctor, the second prince has made a lot of money, how can he not agree!

"Does the eldest prince have any heirs?" Wei Zhao asked again.

"Yes, the eldest prince has not many heirs, and he has only had one son after many years of marriage, and he was just four years old at the time, but he died violently not long after the mutiny." Doctor Wang sighed, the first emperor's evaluation of the second prince was really very pertinent.

He is ruthless, decisive in killing, and does not leave himself a hidden danger.

Wei Zhao sighed and fell into deep thought again.

In the story of Doctor Wang, there is no clue about his life experience, since the second prince rebelled, he would not leave himself with trouble, and he should naturally be killed by various means.

Therefore, he should have little to do with the eldest prince, so the question is, if he is not a prince who lives among the people, then who else is worthy of protection?

couldn't figure it out, so he put aside his life experience for the time being, and instead asked about Luo Hongchang.

"Was Captain Luo involved in the whole thing?"

Doctor Wang thought for a while and said: "Since I left the palace and read the edict, I have been imprisoned until the second prince succeeded in forcing the palace to be released. ”

"However, he should not have participated, the general of the auxiliary country has always been neutral, only loyal to the emperor, and does not participate in party struggles."

After saying that, he himself fell into deep thought, so why did he want to avoid his homeland and not return for several years?
